Geo-spatial AR content anchoring and NFT minting system and associated processes

Abstract

A geo-spatial augmented reality (AR) content anchoring and non-fungible token (NFT) minting system and associated processes are disclosed for linking one or more user-owned AR content item(s) to a particular geo-spatial location by NFT and blockchain technology. The geo-spatial AR content anchoring and NFT minting system and processes provide geo-spatial location NFT minting (“geo-minting”) and geo-spatial location NFT storage (“geo-storage”) on blockchain technology. The geo-spatial AR content anchoring and NFT minting system and processes support a process for re-addressing of NFT geo-storage by way of a location indexing system that aggregates NFTs of user-owned AR content within a perimeter, a defined circumference, or an area encapsulated within a circular boundary defined by a radial distance. The geo-spatial AR content anchoring and NFT minting system and processes also support merged NFTs and evolutionary NFTs.

We claim: 
     
       1. A non-fungible token (NFT)-based augment reality (AR) content ownership and geo-spatial anchoring system comprising:
 a computing device of a user, said computing device comprising one of a mobile device, a tablet computing device, a wearable device, and an immersive hardware computing technology device; 
 an immersive software system that runs on the computing device of the user to provide an immersive experience when viewing immersive content, said immersive experience comprising one of augmented reality, virtual reality, and mixed reality; 
 a blockchain that is communicably connected to a cloud application service and configured to store NFTs in connection with immersive content tied to geo-spatial locations; 
 a software program that is configured to mint NFTs on the blockchain and anchor the minted NFTs to a specific geo-spatial location as recognized by geo-spatial location data that distinctly identifies a specific geo-spatial location of the NFT, wherein the software program is further configured to store minted NFTs on the blockchain, wherein the software program is further configured to enable NFT transactions from one owner to another owner and write all ownership transactions to the blockchain; and 
 an immersive software engaging application that is configured to allow a user to view and interact with NFTs when the user is present at the geo-spatial locations corresponding to the NFTs, wherein said viewing and interacting is performed through the immersive software system.
